“Instead of thinking about work the next day or thinking about what you have to do, if you live in the moment you’ll have some of the best times of your life.”

I ended up getting a lion chain. I had to make my own mascot – I want to start my own dynasty eventually.

Everything I wanted to do was big. I feel like my music is big, the mark I’ma leave in this world is big, so I feel like that’s the perfect name.

I don’t call my people fans, I call them believers, because they go above and beyond.

High ends, high spending. We just trying to end life on a high note.

I want people to feel like they can do anything.

I feel like I changed hip-hop.

I work really hard – that doesn’t mean I deserve anything, but it’s really cool to see the positive reaction people give to something you worked so hard on. It’s one of the best feelings.

I’m not compromising myself in any way, I love just doing whatever I want and showing people it’s real.

I’m just a Westside lover, I leave females in my sheets and all my feelings in a rubber.

The higher the goal, the harder the climb, but after that the bigger the muscle the, smarter the mind.

I think it’s tacky to have chains that go all the way down to your crotch.

I feel like Im able to relate to all races of people because when you learn to tap into the raw emotion of a person, that goes past color.

To live in the moment is truly an art and is truly a talent, because when you live in the moment then you are truly the master of your whole life and you’ll have the best times.

I want to win some awards, sell more records – just do whatever I want.

I just wanted to do something that had some meaning that I can look back and be proud of, that my family can look back and be proud of.

I’m really vulnerable onstage because it’s just me. I’m not really trying to put up a front or act a certain way.

It’s a compulsive need to wreck everything. You might notice there’s a pattern of stripping down and building back up again throughout my life. But I guess that’s how some of us conduct our lives.

So grand yet so small, so important yet so irrelevant, so beautiful yet so shallow, must thee live in illusion or does real life leave too much of a confusion?

All through my life what I’ve loved doing is watching movies. I love the escapism of film, I love stories. So it is incredible to be able to be in them as much as I am, to see them from the first stitch in a costume to the end product.

Love is the music of life.

A holy life will produce the deepest impression. Lighthouses blow no horns; they only shine.

I certainly feel that an adult woman has a right to determine what happens to her life and body.

To write it, it took three months; to conceive it three minutes; to collect the data in it all my life.

You should surround yourself with people that believe in you, in life, and in business.
